A/N: Well, it's almost over. I can't continue this any longer even if I wanted to. I'm running out of ideas. So, enjoy the last two chapters. Because, they will be the end.

Disclaimer: I do not own GX. Angel Duelist 153 helped with this.


Plan Z:

Chazz paced his room, wringing his hands. This was it, the final plan. He had to make this good, otherwise, she'd never be his. After all, he'd promised to give up. Fretting all the more, he sat on his bed and held his head in his hands. This was getting way too agonizing.

He began to wonder if Jaden wanted him to give up because he wanted Alexis. It was possible. But wasn't he too interested in Duel Monsters to care about girls? Maybe that had changed. The point was, Chazz couldn't be sure. Where had that come from anyway? Was he really getting so annoying that Jaden wanted him to give up? Or maybe Jaden was trying to protect him from ultimate humiliation brought about by his desperation. Anything seemed possible at this point.

Chazz bit his lip and tried not to worry so much. He told himself it would be all right. However, the more he tried not to sweat it, the more he did. He was on the verge of absolute insanity. He had to get her somehow, just had to. Finally, he rose to his feet, having come up with an idea.

"It's a stretch," He muttered, "But it's a risk I'm willing to take. It's all or nothing now."

Rubbing his chin thoughtfully, he wondered if Alexis was the type of girl to like those really goody-goody guys. If that were the case, then he was willing to change for her. But, another part of him argued, then she wouldn't really be in love with him. Quickly, he pushed the thought from his mind. He was willing to try anything.

Hurriedly, he flung his black clothes off. He pulled on a white dress shirt, making a face. Then, he pulled on some regular jeans. For the final touch, he snapped a "What would Jesus do" bracelet around his wrist. Smoothing his unruly hair down a bit, making it a tad neater, he surveyed himself in the mirror and nodded.

"That has to do." He muttered, "If this doesn't work, nothing will. I'll be really nice all day, and show her that I can be sensitive and I can be friendly."

He ran out the door, hoping with all his heart that it would work.

----------------------------------------------------------

When he arrived at the cafeteria, he found that Alexis was already there. Swallowing hard, he approached her and pasted a smile on his face, even though his knees were so weak he thought he'd collapse from anxiety and stress. Not to mention lack of sleep.

"Good morning, Alexis!" He chirped, "Lovely day isn't it?"

She looked him up and down and scowled, her guard up. "I suppose."

"So, what are you gonna do today?" He asked, attempting to start a conversation.

"Nothing much." She muttered. "But I will be busy enough. I'm going to read and study."

"Oh, um, ok…I'm going to read too."

"Really? That's…great."

"Yeah, wanna know what?"

She rolled her eyes. "What?"

"I'm going to read the Bible." He sighed and smiled wider, "I love church too. We should go to church together sometime. Or maybe we can read the Bible together. It's so--"

"You're such a poser!" She interrupted, looking angry, "Cut it out! Pretending to be religious when you're not is sacrilege! Just listen to yourself; it's absolutely sickening! Don't talk like that unless you mean it. I'm definitely not impressed."

"But I…"

"You do realize that no matter what you do, I'm still gonna reject you. I don't like you, Chazz. You can't force me to, and I can't force me to. So get lost."

He stared at her for a moment, then, looked down. "Oh…well, that was the last time I was gonna try anyway." He forced a laugh, "I'm sorry. I'll get lost."

Hanging his head, he trudged away to go pick up the broken pieces of his life.

She frowned deeper, peeved. "I'm not gonna sympathize with you if that's what you're trying to do!" She called, now skeptical of everything he did, "If this is another one of your ridiculous schemes, it's NOT working!"

Jaden put a hand on her shoulder. "Uh, Alexis, maybe you should chill. He really has given up, can't you see? He promised me that he'd only try this once more…and that would be it. He's done…"

"What?" She snapped, "Aren't you gonna go give him one of your ridiculous 'don't give up' speeches?"

"No, and they're not ridiculous…"

"Look, I'm just ticked." She pinched the bridge of her nose, squeezing her eyes shut. "But thank God he's done…if what he said was true. Ugh, I've got to go now. I'm getting a killer migraine."

She stormed away, thoroughly insulted.

Jaden sighed. "Well, I guess it was bound to happen eventually. She snapped. But I'm sure Chazz will pull through somehow. Maybe I should go try to cheer him up. Maybe I should've told him why it's best to give up…because" He smiled mischievously to himself, "I have a plan."


A/N: One more chappie. O.o And what does Jaden mean by he has a plan? Will it be for himself? Maybe, maybe not…but it won't quite be what you'd expect. Just wait and see…up next, the grand finale! XD
